I am shy, friendly, geeky and smart. I love to visit distant places but always look forward to returning home.

I am honest, loyal, and funny

What I’m doing with my life

I was recently reminded that I want more out of life. A bit of a kick to the head really. I have plenty of great friends and some truly wonderful best friends. But I want more. Someone to share the little every day events with. To plan a future with. To have a family with. So, it is time to start looking.

Movies:Anything featuring John Cusack is a good start. The first Highlander. Run Lola Run. Nicolas Cage films, except the bad ones. Go. Empire Strikes Back. Wrath of Khan. The Dark Knight. Léon. Stripes, because it was the first R rated movie I saw. The Princess Bride.

The six things I could never do without

My parents: It is nice to have people who are are always there.My friends: Haven't been around as long as parents, but they picked me.Stacks of books to read next: Bookstores depend on me.My computer: It would be so much harder to stay in touch.New Socks: Never underestimate the value of warm feet.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

What do I want to do next? With lots of free time I've found out that many of the things I always thought I'd do if only I had the time... are not actually important to me.

On a typical Friday night I am

Playing board games with my friends; they keep showing up. Some nights we don't actually get around to playing something and just talk all night. That works too.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit

I tried something like this ten years ago but never managed to finish the profile.
